The Process of Paediatric Dental Care
Initial Visit
It is recommended that a child's first dental visit occurs by their first birthday or within six months of their first tooth erupting. During this visit, the dentist will evaluate your child's oral health, discuss oral hygiene habits, and provide guidance on teething, diet, and more.
Routine Check-Ups
Paediatric dentists typically recommend visits every six months to monitor your child's growth and development. These visits often include:
- Comprehensive oral examinations to detect early signs of decay or other issues.
- Professional cleanings to remove plaque and tartar build-up.
Fluoride treatments to strengthen enamel and prevent cavities.
Education and Guidance
Parents and caregivers are provided with tips on maintaining their child's oral hygiene, including proper brushing and flossing techniques, healthy dietary choices, and the importance of limiting sugary snacks and drinks.
